I’m not volunteering to organize it, mind you. Just curious, because last year I missed the deadline to sign up. ---

Have you got any Secret Santa gifts that were spot on? I suppose if you’ve known other posters for years, their choices can come close. ---

Somebody has to step up to the task of organizing it. Did it one year, and while I _luuurve_ participating & sincerely hope it comes together this year, I will not be setting it up. Anyone here got lots of free time & organizational skills? ---
